The Nicetown-Tioga area of north Philadelphia erupted in gunfire in the past hour and the shooting is still ongoing. https://twitter.com/PPDEricGripp/status/1161757697676652545?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1161757697676652545&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.washingtonpost.com%2Fnation%2F2019%2F08%2F14%2Fmultiple-police-officers-wounded-active-philadelphia-shootout-officials-say%2F There are not a lot of details available at this time. This was published at 2:56 p.m. Pacific in the Washington Post: Dramatic...
Well, the human shaped flaming orange rectum aka Donald Trump is again making noises about needing to pass national background checks for gun purchases.   I’m considerably underwhelmed. Trump isn’t about to full on bite the hand that feeds him when...
I'm sure you'll be glad to hear that Donald Trump reported an "amazing day" where there was "so much respect for the office of the president," which is good, since virtually nobody respects him personally -- and that he...
This is getting ridiculous. On Sunday, Governor Matt Dewine of Ohio was pretty much chanted off of the stage at an address to a crow of mourners in Dayton to a chorus of Do DO SOMETHING! DO SOMETHNG! And within 48...
Over thirty Americans lie dead from the weekend's carnage, dozens more are in hospitals, and our tone deaf titular leader just keeps doubling down on his absurd rhetoric, insisting he's blameless and it's all the other guys' fault. No...
This is a breaking story and will be updated. https://twitter.com/lizkohWAFB/status/1158787892334006276?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1158787892334006276&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.wafb.com%2F2019%2F08%2F06%2Freports-shooting-walmart-burbank-drive%2F This isn't something to panic over until it is. Right now it appears shots were fired, but it is not an active shooter, mass murder type of scenario. Hit this link for...
Usually when I reference the "You Can't Make This Shit Up" file, it's with respect to something so ludicrously funny, that you would expect to find it on the front page of The Onion. That is not the case...
Teri closed last night, so I was fortunate enough to still be asleep, and thereby miss the post massacre pep talk from the caretaker of the workshop of broken toys. But I caught more than enough replay snippets once...
If you missed Donald Trump's listless monotone performance reading the teleprompter Monday morning, he squandered whatever small measure of goodwill he may have built up with his bombast about taking action against gun violence, by mistakenly consoling the residents...
This is one of those screeds which is so far out there that it becomes self-parody. https://twitter.com/ChrisSeelbach/status/1158145939728687105?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1158145939728687105&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cincinnati.com%2Fstory%2Fnews%2Fpolitics%2F2019%2F08%2F04%2Fohio-shooting-state-rep-blames-shootings-drag-queen-advocates-and-open-borders%2F1918106001%2F https://twitter.com/butlersheriff/status/1158207260998406145?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1158207260998406145&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cincinnati.com%2Fstory%2Fnews%2Fpolitics%2F2019%2F08%2F04%2Fohio-shooting-state-rep-blames-shootings-drag-queen-advocates-and-open-borders%2F1918106001%2F Jones is the Sheriff of Butler County, Ohio, which is a Republican stronghold. A Democrat has yet to declare an intention to run against...
